[PATCH] MAINTAINERS: rectify file patterns for NETFILTER

[Lukas Bulwahn]

The two file patterns in the NETFILTER section:

  F:      include/linux/netfilter*
  F:      include/uapi/linux/netfilter*

intended to match the directories:

  ./include{/uapi}/linux/netfilter_{arp,bridge,ipv4,ipv6}

A quick check with ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl --letters -f will show that
they are not matched, though, because this pattern only matches files, but
not directories.

Rectify the patterns to match the intended directories.

applies cleanly on v5.10-rc3 and next-20201109

Pablo, Jozsef, Florian, please pick this minor non-urgent clean-up patch.

This line could be deleted or perhaps moved up one line above

F:	include/linux/netfilter/
F:	include/linux/netfilter*/

(as the second line already matches the first line's files too)
